Tremor Owners and Orders Lounge

I think you'll like it. The ridgeline is a great truck, my father drives one with a similar amount of miles...rock solid. Good choice on Cactus Grey, although I may be biased.

It was a great truck. Treated me really well. Besides maintenance it never had an issue in all those miles. Having a black truck all these years I needed something different, Catus Grey is the answer. Nice truck btw...

We added the Tremor to our family lineup which includes the newer gen 2016 Honda Pilot Touring AWD, while she did OK towing our travel trailer, it really felt like we were at max load with the Pilot. The Ranger, no problems. I do want to upgrade the radiator since I tow in Vegas heat (+110F at times). I think you will be quite happy with the Tremor.

I am currently towing a 2500lb boat which the Ridgeline has no issues but I do plan on getting something a bit bigger soon. I looked at the Tacoma also because it could tow 6400lbs, but once I saw what the Ranger could handle I was sold. Trying not to get too excited as I still have some time before I get it.

Just finished a trip up Ute Pass, which is just over 9100 ft with a cab full of people, a bed full of gear, and towing a popup travel trailer and it didn't break a sweat doing it. Was actually pretty hard keeping my speed down. Never had a vehicle with tow haul mode before so it was kinda cool to get used to that going down the steep grades.

The shot is from the Ford order tracking site. I didn't get any updates in my Ford account, even though I set up the order from the web and had it sent to my dealership. I had to get the order number and VIN from my salesperson and enter those into the Ford tracker, manually. Depending on other factors, I think order to delivery is 10-12 weeks on Rangers.

Thanks for that info. On the Bronco they are automatically sending us a VIN when we get our build scheduled.....must be because we reserved it so long ago. I guess they don't do that on other vehicles/the Ranger. I will ask my Dealer to send me the VIN when it is created.

My experience has been the same. My Bronco was updated automatically through my Ford.com account. But, the Ranger isn't being updated by Ford the same way.

So realized I forgot to update with pics, I think I saw another spot like this on the car wash too but now the truck has a layer of dust on it which makes it hard to find. I am more concerned with long term paint issues than cosmetics.

It is clearly under the paint. Not sure if Ford has a bulletin on this but the grey Tremor that had in the show room had a spot like this on the rear fender near the tailgate too so I am sure this is happening often enough.

(edit: You can use the close up for reference where it is on the farther image, the shadow on the home is distorted because of it in the photo)

Same here. I ordered the Lariat for some of the other creature comforts that aren't offered on the XLT but the display was almost a deal-breaker, especially since you're locked to what can be displayed on either side (as opposed to allowing us to fully customize the display).

it’s laughable how useless the right display is. I wish there was some aftermarket way to customize it with forscan or something.

 

[RBTremor]

The Lariat does; the XLT has the standard (and better?) version.

Thanks, I think I agree that the XLT version with two gauges is better, at least looks better. I would rather have the full size tach than all the Tech stuff. I ordered a Lariat so I guess I will learn to adapt.

I'm the new guy here at Tremor Lounge. Just picked

her up Monday!

Thanks for setting this up. I have a Carbonized Gray XLT Tremor on order. I almost bought the FX4 with black package. I wanted the Raptor style wheels, side steps and auxiliary switches. I came across the Tremor package and it checked all of the boxes! I would have essentially been into the FX4 for the same money by the time I was done.

 

[Shelby American]

Hello! I just purchased a 2021 Lariat with the Tremor package. There must be dozens of us out there! Come hang out and tell us about your Tremor, why you picked the Tremor, and what you're most excited for on the Tremor!

For me, it was a great value. Suspension, wheels, and tires are all aggressive enough for me straight from the factory, and offer significant improvements over the FX4. Having everything dialed in by Ford engineers inspires confidence!

I haven't yet had a chance to explore its capabilities as I've only driven about 50 miles. But thus far, the ride quality, drivetrain, and quality of the interior (surprised me how much I liked it) all impressed. And those tires are so aggressive. Love the look of them. I will update when I get a chance to take it off road. Hoping tomorrow!

If you have any questions about the Tremor specifically feel free to ask and I will do what I can to investigate. Here's a picture for now.

Just ordered

Update: I drove 5 hours and bought another from a dealer in San Antonio. Love the drive. Add pictures in next post.

I just ordered the velocity Blue. Looks great.

 

[Shelby American]

Does anyone with a Tremor have rear tow hooks? I just checked my wife's and it does not have them.

Only if you don't have the tow package

 

[Shelby American]

I ordered the velocity Blue on 8/20. Been going back and forth on this and the carbonized gray. Haven't received any emails from Ford yet, hoping it won't take several months.

 

[Shelby American]

I love mine.

Regarding the rattling, this should help:

Just ordered the velocity Blue. Are you loving the color so far? Does it show much dirt?

I did not receive any emails from ford. When I ordered the sheet had the dealer code and order number. At about 3 weeks, i called customers service, and they said that i had a vin. They told me to call my dealer for my scheduled production week. After that i used the tracking website.
